as you listen to both sides, they're both going to take them. dana, the president said earlier, if he couldn't get unemployment below 8%, this would be a one-term presidency, a one-term proposition. unemployment, though, we'll remind everybody back in '09 was in double digits. it's now under 8%. obviously, the president is getting some high marks for thinks his reaction and response to sandy, chris governor chris christie, michael bloomberg coming out and endorsing the president. is this a solid position? >> any other year, this wouldn't have been considered any position that he would want to be in as an incumbent president. but, well, you have to factor in the weakness of the opposition and also the history nature of this recovery which makes it different in speed from ones before it. i think what today is not a big news story and that's good news for the president. this was sort of the last chance that some external event could really trip him up. obviously, nobody knows what could occur over the last four days. but republicans were hoping thi
